FOR TODAY : January 23, 2012



Outside my window.... foggy and wet - not raining, just mist in the air. It is supposed to be warm today. It's not quite light as I write this (an early morning start).

I am thankful.... that Wednesday is the day I receive my first Social Security check. The check book is pretty empty and the grocery list is long.

In the kitchen.... Steel cut oats for breakfast in awhile. - my favorite breakfast at home. Tonight - not sure but probably fish and potatoes with a veg

I am wearing.... grey sweat pants and grey t-shirt with flip flops. Haven't dressed for the day yet.

I am creating.... still working on my quilt wall hanging.

I am going.... to the bank, the grocery store, to Mandy's groomers Wed and Thurs and lunch with a friend on Saturday

I am reading.... my Bible, Face To Face Appearances with Jesus

I am hoping.... that I can come to a final decision about a move to Tennessee soon.

I am looking forward to.... being financially solvent again and lunch with Marge on Saturday.

I am learning.... still patience.

Around the house.... very quiet. Even Mandy, my dog is quiet.which means I probably need to check and see what she's up to.

I am pondering.... what God has in store for me this year. I want to feel settled in my mind about my move but I'm not yet.

A favorite quote for today…. "Eat food. Not too much" Mostly plants." - a quote from Michael Pollan, author of "Food Rules." 

One of my favorite things.... Lunch with a friend I don't see often enough. Looking forward to it, Marge!

A few plans for the rest of the week: Bank deposit. Grocery shopping!!  Taking Mandy to the groomers. Lunch with a friend. In between time, house cleaning and working on my quilt wall hanging.

A peek into my day…

This is a shot of my back yard when I lived in Tennessee in 2005. I was fascinated with the snow and how pretty it was. Back in Florida, it is only a distant memory but I may be back in it next winter!
